Abstract
A self-organizing map (SOM) is an artificial neural network algorithm that can learn from the training data consisting of objects expressed as vectors and perform non-hierarchical clustering to represent input vectors into discretized clusters, with vectors assigned to the same cluster sharing similar numeric or alphanumeric features. SOM has been used widely in transcriptomics to identify co-expressed genes as candidates for co-regulated genes. I envision SOM to have great potential in characterizing heterogeneous sequence motifs, and aim to illustrate this potential by a parallel presentation of SOM with a set of numerical vectors and a set of equal-length sequence motifs. While there are numerous biological applications of SOM involving numerical vectors, few studies have used SOM for heterogeneous sequence motif characterization. This paper is intended to encourage (1) researchers to study SOM in this new domain and (2) computer programmers to develop user-friendly motif-characterization SOM tools for biologists.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
